Thomas Family Go Fund Me

The Thomas family is facing one of the hardest things imaginable: the loss of 19-year-old Caitlin to medical complications from Aicardi Syndrome.

Caitlin has been hospitalized for more than a month. One or both of her parents, Michael and Lynne, have been with her the entire time. But medical tests have now confirmed there was nothing the doctors could do to resolve Caitlin’s recent complications. On October 7, Michael announced that they are in the end phase of Caitlin’s life.

This is ongoingly tragic. My reaction to it is not the best, though: just what is going wrong? She's desatting; is this just that the breathing reflex is sometimes just failing?
